    10 Apple Dessert Recipes (That Aren't Pie)

    If our Facebook feeds are any indication, people love picking huge basketfuls of apples during autumn. What they do with all those apples is anybody's guess, because a human being can only eat so much pie. That's not to say that pie doesn't have its place on a fall dessert menu. We're big proponents of the stuff, and we've previously featured fun apple pie recipes here and here. But while fresh apples and fresh apple pie are new and exciting in early September, they get tired after a few big holidays come and go. READ: The 4 Health Benefits of Apples What we're saying is, you're going to get sick of apple pecan pie, or Dutch apple pie, or whatever it is you're going to eat seven slices of on Thanksgiving. And when that time comes, you'll be glad you heard about the following apple dessert recipes.
